Instructions to make My Own Special Sweet Potato Bakes:
- Here's the sugar-free sweetner ("Pal Sweet") that I use - same sweetness with sugar, but 90% low in calories with zero sugar.
- Peel the sweet potatoes and chop into small chunks. Soak in water for 20 minutes.
- Put that into a microwave-safe container. Cover with plastic wrap, and microwave until soft. *It's usually 7 minutes at 600 W, flip it over for another 5 minutes, then steam in the microwave for 3 minutes.
- Transfer the sweet potatoes into a bowl and mash while it's hot.
- Pass it through a strainer. *It's actually easier to do this after Step 6 - it's up to you.
- Put the sweet potatoes and butter into a pan. Knead well. Add milk, heavy cream, PAL sweet, and salt. Cook over low heat. *60 ml milk, 30 ml heavy cream.
- Let's taste. Sometimes the sweet potatoes aren't sweet enough, so increase the amount of sugar if necessary.
- *You could also add some honey (unlisted) to improve the taste. In that case, use less sugar!
- Mix well to remove excess moisture. When it's thick, turn the heat off. *Ideally, it shouldn't stick to your finger when touched, but it's alright if it's slightly sticky!
- Leave aside to cool down slightly. Now add the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Mix well. *If you add the egg yolk immediately after removing from the heat, it will harden the batter!
- Preheat oven to 180°C.
- Divide the batter into your preferred sizes. Shape into an half-oval.
- Mix egg yolk into water for the egg wash. Brush it onto the surface of the sweet potatoes. *Don't use it all up or throw it away - you will use it again later.
- Bake for 30 minutes in 180°C oven. *After 20 minutes, take it out and brush on the egg wash again. Continue baking for another 10 minutes.
- Done. It's the most delicious when freshly baked. When it's gone cold, just heat in a toaster oven. This will improve the taste and brown the tops nicely.
